I think the idea is that are proto-AGIs emerge the levels of automation possible within industry and society generally will rise. Just like the introduction of the steam engine this would reduce costs and increase the speed of production and delivery of goods and services. In the soft takeoff scenario there will be a period of time where increasing automation below the level of human general intelligence brings many benefits, and huge wealth to new new breed of super-industrialists. Probably the next Bill Gates will be running some kind of automation empire, delivering services via robotics. ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=98558129-0bdb63 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
